Description

1852-C Quarter Eagle, AU58
Scarce, Low-Mintage Issue

1852-C $2 1/2 AU58 NGC. Variety 1. The only variety for the year. Because no quarter eagles were minted at the Charlotte Mint in 1853, the small mintage of 9,772 coins from 1852 had to meet the needs of the regional economy for both years. As a result, the 1852-C quarter eagle is usually found in well-circulated condition. Doug Winter estimates the surviving population at 115-165 examples, with 23-32 specimens in AU grades. On the present coin, the strike is relatively strong around the peripheries, with the usual softness over the central devices. The surfaces are an attractive green-gold color, with minimal abrasions.
